                    in the house of representatives

                     Wednesday, September 21, 2016

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Bob Crittenden, of Afton, Iowa for being selected as Union 
County's 2016 inductee into the Iowa 4-H Hall of Fame.
  Bob Crittenden is a lifetime resident of Union County. He has been 
involved with 4-H since becoming a member of the Royal Rustlers 4-H 
club in 1949 and a volunteer with the organization for 40 years. Bob 
showed market beef at the Union County Fair and the Iowa State Fair. 
Since then, he has helped with the beef projects as a mentor to the 
youth. He also has helped with the weighing, the show ring, and 
volunteered his talents as an auctioneer on many occasions.
  Mr. Speaker, the example set by Bob Crittenden demonstrates the 
rewards of harnessing one's talents and sharing them with the world. 
His efforts embody the Iowa spirit and I am honored to represent Bob 
Crittenden and many Iowans like him in the United States Congress. I 
know that all of my colleagues in the United States House of 
Representatives will join me in congratulating Bob Crittenden for his 
achievements and wish him nothing but continued success.
